Its content is presumed accurate, and it can only be challenged through a specific legal procedure known as \u201cforgery proceedings.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Its <\/span><b>enforceability<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In the event of non-payment, the creditor can enforce it without going through a judge.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is what justifies the use of a notary, and why their involvement is mandatory for the most significant civil legal acts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unlike a lawyer, a notary <\/span><b>secures the transaction for all parties involved<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: seller, buyer, heirs. A notary does not act as an advisor for one party against another.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This impartiality is the counterpart of their status as a public officer, holder of the state seal.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What Is the Role of a Notary in a Real Estate Transaction?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The notary\u2019s role spans several stages, including the preliminary agreement and the final deed registration.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Preliminary Agreement<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The notary <\/span><b>drafts or reviews the preliminary sales agreement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For example, they ensure that the suspensive conditions are fair to the buyer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These clauses allow the buyer to withdraw from the sale if certain conditions are not met (such as obtaining a mortgage or the absence of major easements).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The notary also reviews <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/the-stages-of-the-sale\/sales-agreement\/who-pays-for-the-notarys-preliminary-sales-agreement-explanation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who pays for the preliminary sales agreement<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The common practice is for the buyer to bear the costs, but this allocation is not fixed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Legal Due Diligence<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Between the preliminary agreement and the final deed, the notary carries out a series of checks that ensure the security of the transaction:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Title deed verification,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mortgage status,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Urban planning regulations,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easements,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Municipal pre-emption rights, meaning the local authority\u2019s right of first refusal to purchase the property.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The clearance of pre-emption rights (official notification to the municipality, which then has a period to exercise or waive its right) can sometimes be mishandled. Without proper verification by the notary, the municipality may later assert its right to purchase the property even after the sale.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Signing the Authentic Deed<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the day of the sale, the notary reads the entire deed, collects signatures, receives funds, and transfers ownership.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/the-stages-of-the-sale\/sale-deed-fees-who-pays-what-and-how-much\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sale generates fees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which the notary anticipates at the preliminary agreement stage and communicates to both parties.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>After the Sale<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The notary registers the deed with the land registry office. This publication makes the transfer of ownership enforceable against third parties, meaning it is legally recognized and cannot be challenged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They then transfer the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/notary-fees\/transfer-taxes\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">transfer duties<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> collected from the buyer to the state and local authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How Much Are Notary Fees?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For existing properties, notary fees represent <\/span><b>7\u20138% of the property price<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, compared to 2\u20133% for new builds. The difference is mainly due to transfer taxes, which are significantly higher for <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/notary-fees-for-old-property\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">existing properties<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The law allows a discount of up to 20% on notary fees for transactions above \u20ac100,000. For more details, see our guide on <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/negotiating-notary-fees\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">negotiating notary fees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The term \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consultants-immobilier.com\/en\/sellers-guides\/notary-fees\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">notary fees<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d is commonly used, but in reality around <\/span><b>80% of the amount<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> corresponds to taxes paid to the state and local authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><b>notary\u2019s fees<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, meaning their actual remuneration, represent about 10% of the total. They are set by a regulated national tariff, identical for all notaries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The remaining 10% covers disbursements, including administrative documents such as planning certificates, mortgage statements, and cadastral records.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Can There Be Two Notaries in a Real Estate Transaction?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, this is common practice. In a sale, the notary is usually chosen by the buyer. However, the seller is free to appoint their own.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When each party appoints their own notary, both professionals act <\/span><b>jointly<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: one drafts the deed (the \u201cinstrumenting notary\u201d), while the other oversees it on behalf of their client.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fees are shared equally between the two offices, with no additional cost for the parties.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Inheritance, Gifts, Wealth: Other Areas of Notarial Practice<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A notary\u2019s role extends beyond real estate transactions. Two key areas are particularly relevant for property owners.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Wealth Transfer<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A notary is required in all inheritance matters. They establish the <\/span><b>certificate of inheritance<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which identifies the heirs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They also settle the estate, calculate taxes, and organize the distribution of assets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, when a family apartment is part of an estate with multiple heirs, the notary:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Values the property,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Determines each heir\u2019s share,<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drafts the deed of partition or sale according to the parties\u2019 wishes.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without their involvement, no real estate transfer is legally possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Wealth Structuring<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notaries also play a key role in common wealth structuring arrangements such as SCI formation, ownership dismemberment, and inheritance anticipation through gifts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, they are authorized to structure a <\/span><b>usufruct arrangement<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This allows parents to transfer bare ownership of a property to their children while retaining usufruct. This significantly reduces the taxable base for gift taxes.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/5&#8243;
